This has nothing to do with Gnus. Please ask in a relevant newsgroup, such as - perhaps - gnu.emacs.help. (Did you turn "Active Regions" off by any chance? Your description sounds like that is your problem (I always turn the off because I do *not* want the annoying colouring of regions)). Best regards, -- "Gravity is arbitrary!"
